Becoming a Grandmother

Most exciting news my daughter, Rachel, who is getting married in September, has announced she is pregnant. The baby is due in December. Hard to image in about 6 months there will be a new addition to the family. 

There will be a gender reveal. A baby quilt has been requested. I already have the fairy quilt in to the longarmer so a girl quilt is nearly done. The lead-off image is the fabric pull for the boy quilt. Recently, I went through a fabric destash and gave away all of the baby flannels. Thinking there would never be a baby in my life. What is also wonderful about the news is that this is the first grandchild for both sides of the family.  

I had always wanted children, and of course, grandchildren. This one scene from the movie Terms of Endearment (1983) always cracks me up. 


Segueing to China pattern news. I continue to update the pattern I keep for my own. These amazing 8 German porcelain dinner and 11 dessert plates came through at hospice thrift for a song! 

I have learned so much from watching the Dr. Lori series on YouTube. These Rosenthal Evensong plates are bright white, and numbered editions!
